Displaying VRRP and VRRPE information

state

This Layer 3 Switch VRRP or VRRPE state for the VRID. The state can be one of
the following:

initialize – The VRID is not enabled (activated). If the state remains
“initialize” after you activate the VRID, make sure that the VRID is also
configured on the other routers and that the routers can communicate
with each other.

NOTE: If the state is “initialize” and the mode is incomplete, make sure you

have specified the IP address for the VRID.

backup – This Layer 3 Switch is a Backup for the VRID.

master – This Layer 3 Switch is the Master for the VRID.

administrative-status

The administrative status of the VRID. The administrative status can be one of
the following:

disabled – The VRID is configured on the interface but VRRP or VRRPE
has not been activated on the interface.

enabled – VRRP or VRRPE has been activated on the interface.

mode

Indicates whether the Layer 3 Switch is the Owner or a Backup for the VRID.
NOTE: If “incomplete” appears after the mode, configuration for this VRID is

incomplete. For example, you might not have configured the virtual IP
address that is being backed up by the VRID.

NOTE: This field applies only to VRRP. All Layer 3 Switches configured for

VRRPE are Backups.

priority

The device preferability for becoming the Master for the VRID. During
negotiation, the router with the highest priority becomes the Master.
If two or more devices are tied with the highest priority, the Backup interface
with the highest IP address becomes the active router for the VRID.

current priority

The current VRRP or VRRPE priority of this Layer 3 Switch for the VRID. The
current priority can differ from the configured priority (see the row above) for
the following reasons:

The VRID is still in the initialization stage and has not become a Master or
Backup yet. In this case, the current priority is 0.

The VRID is configured with track ports and the link on a tracked interface
has gone down. Refer to

“Track ports and track priority”

on page 867.

hello-interval

The configured value for the hello interval. This is the amount of time between
Hello messages from the Master to the Backups for a given VRID:

It show the dead interval in number of milliseconds.

dead-interval

The configured value for the dead interval. This is the amount of time a
Backup waits for a Hello message from the Master for the VRID before
determining that the Master is no longer active:

It show the dead interval in number of milliseconds.

If the Master does not send a Hello message before the dead interval expires,
the Backups negotiate (compare priorities) to select a new Master for the VRID.
NOTE: If the value is 0, then you have not configured this parameter.
NOTE: This field does not apply to VRRP Owners.

current dead-interval

The current value of the dead interval. This is the value actually in use by this
interface for the VRID:

It show the dead interval in number of milliseconds.

NOTE: This field does not apply to VRRP Owners.
